ACLs are used for a variety of things, so there is a "it depends"
answer: you can achieve the splitting (via route-maps and policies) when
you deal with ACLs for routing, however interface/traffic ACLs can't be
split this way, you can only apply a single ACL as an input/output ACL
to an interface. When it comes to firewall filtering, PIX/ASAs support
object groups which you can use to compile your ACLs, and one could also
aruge that the Zone-based IOS FW's class-maps for traffic classification
also allow a more modular approach.

hope this helps..
